To the below poster from a UCSD prospective international student, Thanks for your post. I have also applied for the MAE Ph.D. program in the month of December and yet to hear from the department. I am also seeing many students (on Gradcafe) getting interviewed and admission decisions from MAE department, but don't know whether they are domestic students or international. I don't know about the April 15 date of notification. Does the MAE dept. posted anything anywhere like that?

Do any international students hear from the MAE Ph.D. program? Do they have to wait until 415 to send out the results?

About a month ago received an invite for a visit day, today got an official acceptance (email to check the status update on the portal).

I won't comment on this. This was the first reject of my Masters application process.

No idea regarding the position on the wait-list or the tier (1, 2 or 3).

Please if anyone got accepted but wants to go other universities decline your offer ASAP .

MS/PhD program. I'd contacted the dept on Mar 1 asking for any updates and a probable timeline on when I could receive it. They informed that decisions are not sent to all students at once and that I should expect an update from now to June (couldn't have been vaguer). Whether waitlisted or rejected, we'll never know.

I was admitted several days ago without funding. A professor said I can apply for a TA position in August. As an international student, Ph.D. admission without funding will make it difficult to obtain a Visa from the USA embassy.

I was offered a fully funded position along with assistantship package which is pretty hard for MS candidates. All thanks go to my potential thesis supervisor who helped me immensely. The research area aligns so perfectly with mine that this University was my first choice for pursuing my intended program. And so, I choose this University over better-ranked ones.

Emailed to check portal. Super stoked to be admitted. Visited UCLA to chat with one of the professors during application. Good luck to everyone that is waiting for an offer from UCLA!

Notified by Graduate Division, no information on funding or adviser. Trying hard to make it available with RA position!

TTPB: Did they really say that, they only accept top application. I have not heard back from them, and at this moment I feel that I will be rejected.

To blow post. Would you mind share how many publication you have ? Thank you !

Mechanical Engineering (track Biomechanical Design)

I regret to inform you that the Graduate Committee did not accept your application. They are only accepting top applications

Nothing stated about funding and still waiting to hear something

No interviews, so I was VERY surprised to see an offer and a scholarship as well. 1/6 so here's hoping (I haven't received any other offers / rejects). I may reject if I receive any other offers by April 15.
